Chief Judge Alyery has fled the
opinion In the Court of Appeals in
the case of John E Hurford VS.
Haines, executor and trustee, taken
up from this county. The question
for determination in this suit was
whether or not the appellant is en-
titled to the interest on the residuary
portion of the estate of his father,
Eli Hurfurd, who left will. In af-
firming the decree of the lower Court
the Court of Appeal decides that the
appellant is not entitled to this re.
lief, but that the residum shall be in
vested and the interest reinvested
for the benefit of his children until
his death.
Garfield Post will leave its Hall,
Rising Sun, at one o'clock sharp, on
Monday, May 3Oth, Memorial Day.
for Brick Meeting House, where the
memorial services will be held and
the graves of the soldiers will be dec
GRATED with flags y flowers. The
cemeteries at Ebenezer, West Not
tingham Presbyterian and Friends
West Nottingham burial grounds will
be decorated by details. The public

ed to meet with the Post and accom-.
peny them to the cemetery, those

decorate all the graves. A numbe r
ofspeakers are expected.
The large Hall in the Passmore
Building has been handsomely fitted
up by the dramatic company. The
stage with its scenery occupies the
whole of one end of the Hall and has
been arranged very tastefully. The
company have spent good deal of
time and money in preparing to give
their play to the best advantage.
They have been rehearsing, and each
actor studying his or her part dill
igently and we have no doubt that
the ambitious comEsny of artists
will agreeably surprise their friends,
when they appear on the boards in
"Past Re :emption." The conclud
ing farce the Limerick Boy" is very
piece. The company de-
serve rousing house for the pains
and expense they have been at to
provide pleasing entertainment for
the public.

Teemer Wins.

LAKE MARANAoooK, Me-, Oct. 2S.-
Ieemer won the race easily to day.
Teemers time was pops 8 5. Gaudaur's
time was not taken.
The weather was very favorable for the
Teemer Gaudaur race this morning, and
when the referee gave the word to 90 the
contestants sped away in good shape. The
race for the first mile was all that the
spectators could wish, but Teemer soon
showed his superiority over his rival and
drew away from him. Gaudaur tugged
maufully at the SOULS and with his great
strength and skill fully brought, into play
spurted again and again and did every
thing that be could to get on even terms
with Teemer. out to no purpose. The
champion Of America saw him every
thing. and went a little better and won the
race handily.
Both oarsmcn took their positions at
just 9 O'Clock and were at once sent away.
Gaudaur took the water very quickly and
went a little to the front. Teemer, recog
nizing Gandaur's slight lead, pulled up
on him and had nearly closed up a lead
of a length on the quarter mile. eau
daur was pulling thirty four strokes and
Teemer thirty three. At the half mile
post Teemer was upon the 1T. Louis man,
while Gaudaur seemed to be giving out.
His lett oar tailed to fully respond and he
was rowing unevenly. Here Teemer shot
away from his rival and at the three
quarter mile post had a slight lead, which
which he had increased at the mile.
Te.mer did some fast work to the turn.
He beat Gaudaur out. and there was no
race home. Gaudaur was making no
effort to show his speed. The race was a
complete walk -over.
Teemer and his friends at once took
the train for Portland. and will go on to
New York. He sails for England the
middle of November TO meet Bubear on
the Thames.

by particles of coal in the soil. This coal,
opened in places by cuts and short shafts
and drifts, is seen to exist in heavy meas
ures. Besides numerous small deposits
there are at least three which are large
working seams, being from five to ten
feet in thickness. The coal is very black
and shiny, and does not slack very much,
and though it frequently shows evidence
of it. vegetable origin, I regard it as Of
excellent quality for domestic and steam
making purposes.
Such is a brief description of the coun,
try within a few miles of the geographi-
cal center of Wyoming. Desolate as it at
first appears, it is rich in resources.
When it is considered that away from
the bad lands such as above described are
as rich valleys and as fertile soils as the
sun ever shone upon, and as massive
mountain ranges as ever awed the spirit
of those who travel in them, does it not
seem that the people will have a state as
rich in mineral as any of her
sisters about her?
